Enables Multi-Rack Expansion for S7-300 Systems:Allows the S7-300 PLC to expand from a single rack to a system of up to 4 racks (1 central + 3 expansion racks), significantly increasing I/O capacity for large-scale automation applications.
High-Speed and Reliable Data Communication:Communicates with IM 361 modules on expansion racks via dedicated Profibus bus cables, ensuring fast, real-time, and stable data transfer between CPU and remote I/O.
Plug-and-Play with Automatic Rack Recognition:Once configured in STEP 7, the system automatically detects connected expansion racks and their modules – no additional programming required.
Galvanic Isolation for Strong Noise Immunity:Built-in electrical isolation minimizes interference between racks, enhancing system reliability in noisy industrial environments.
Dedicated for Central Rack (Master Role):The 6ES7360-3AA01-0AA0 (IM 360) is installed only in the central rack as the master interface; expansion racks require IM 361 modules (e.g., 6ES7361-3CA01-0AA0) as slave interfaces.
